Hiragana Flashcards
A small introduction to Japanese. ⛩️🌸🍙
While Japanese uses three writing systems (Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji), Hiragana is the most common alphabet, used for most native Japanese words. Hiragana Flashcards introduce you to each HIragana character with it's sound and pairs some common example words.
In this game, you progress through carefully crafted Challenge Lessons, each introducing a new group of Hiragana or helping you reinforce the ones you’ve already learned.
